Luck nodded, "Thanks Rune." A look of appreciation lit up his face, "It really helps."

He closed his math notebook and placed it into his bag. Next class was science. Science was relatively fun for Luck, when the teacher dropped things, anyway.

[Kitarun]

Science was one of the classes he and Luck shared. Packing his books up, he cleaned up his lunch, before climbing to his feet. "So, Luck... Um... What exactly is going on now? Obviously you're not bullying me anymore, but... What are we?" He asked, nervously biting his lip and clutching tight to the strap of his messenger bag with one hand, his books in his other arm.

[Potironette]

Luck's eyes darkened as he saw Rune turn timid again. Something flipped inside him as he watched Rune bite down on his lip. As he watched how Rune's fingers delicately tightened on the strap of the messenger bag. On a sudden impulse, he stood up and leaned suddenly towards Rune, ignoring the students around them.

"Who said I wasn't bullying you anymore?" He whispered, his voice suddenly husky. He pulled up Rune's chin, "What is bullying really?"


((Umm, so I'm comfortable with writing scenes but I just don't know when it's appropriate to make Luck do stuff like that ^^;; I feel like it miiight be appropriate now..maybe? Not used to the genre. I've only read dub-con bordering on non-con once in my life ^^;;))

[Kitarun]

((*squeaks* oh, um... Yeah, maybe not the best place to do it, being in the middle of the school grounds and such, but the timing is definitely good))

Rune's breath hitched, cheeks flushing as Luck was suddenly very close. He trembled slightly, having a hard time keeping his eyes locked on Luck's, instead of darting around, looking for an escape route.

"Ahh... Um, well, I-I kinda assumed... Y'know, since you were being so nice, 'n you told the twins not to, anymore..." He said, biting his lip once more as he trailed off.

[Potironette]

((Yeah, definitely not the best place to do it. Which is also why I'm just making the scene and breaking it up super fast.))


Luck traced a finger over the bottom of Rune's lip. "What do you think bullying is?" He repeated heavily.
But now the students were rushing to get into science class, and Luck dropped his hand. He gave Rune a slow smile, the corners of his mouth creeping upwards. Then he turned, the moment lost, and headed inside along with the rest of the students.

[Kitarun]

Rune was at a loss for words as Lucifer turned and walked away, the moment broken. He was left standing there, flushed and trembling, though in a good way, for once. He hadn't had a chance to answer Luck's question, so had a little bit of time to think about it. Obviously, it was the use of force, threat, or coercion to abuse, intimidate, or aggressively dominate others.... But it could be so much more than just that, as well, and so much less, at the same time.

[Potironette]

As Luck walked into the science classroom, he thought about what had just occurred, and inwardly his heart raced, though his countenance did nothing to show it. He realized then, that perhaps he had always bullied Rune because there was something to the boy that just made him want to, well, he didn't finish the thought. Or rather, he didn't know how to articulate it. The feeling of storm clouds swirling over the eye, he thought, it was something like that.

Luck didn't really know what a bully meant to others. But to him, it was a sort of large presence. Like a storm.

[Kitarun]

When Rune finally snapped out of his stupir, he rushed off to class, barely making it before the bell. He quickly took his seat on the opposite side of the room from Luck, not wanting to draw anyone's attention.

[Potironette]

Luck settled into his seat, smirking a little at Rune as he entered.
The science teacher began the roll-call.

"Lucifer." Said the science teacher.

Luck frowned. Since when did the science teacher get a new roll-call list? His name was Luck, and he'd made that clear from the beginning.

"Lucifer?" Repeated the science teacher. "Lucifer Aspen, is he absent?"

"It's Luck." Luck said, ominously. "I'm Luck Aspen."

The science teacher marked down the name, "Alright, Luck." He moved onto the next name.

[Kitarun]

Rune looked a little surprised when the teacher called for Luck by his full name. Really, he'd forgotten that the teen's name wasn't actually Luck, that that was just a nickname. He hoped that the teacher- and whoever had made the new list- would have remembered he went by his second name, and not his first. Nobody but his father called him Joshua.

[Potironette]

Luck preferred Luck over Lucifer. Who wanted to be called a fallen angel anyway? He thought to himself. Lucifer certainly wasn't lucky.

"Moat?" The teacher asked. Someone mentioned their name was pronounced "mat" instead. the teacher tripped over multiple other names before he pronounced "Joshua."


((Just curious, was Rune mentioning 'Lucifer' intentional? I figured that since Rune called him Lucifer he might as well be Lucifer.))

[Kitarun]

((Eh? When did he do that? Heheh, obviously not intentional...)

Rune flinched as the teacher called his first name. "It's Rune..." He corrected the teacher, nearly glaring at the professor. "Really, you've been teaching us all year- how hard is it, really, to remember our names?"

[Potironette]

(("Rune was at a loss for words as Lucifer turned and walked away"))

The teacher paused in the roll-calling, "Well," she said, "When you have 40 plus students every class we'll see how well you remember." The old lady stared at Rune and the rest of the class.

[Kitarun]

Rune glared back, but didn't say anything else. It really aasn't that hard to remember someone's name if you actually took the time and effort to learn it.

((Ah, no. Unintentionslal. I just finished reading a SPN fanfic, and lucifer was one of the last words to the chapter. Mustve been stuck in my mind. Sorry))

[Potironette]

The teacher ignored Rune's glare and moved onto the other students. Some names were butchered. Some names were not.

"Alright Class," She said when she finished taking the roll call, "We are learning about forces today. Please do the Do Now."



((Ohh, okay. It's fine ^^. I need to edit to front page though xD))

[Kitarun]

((Do the do? XD))

Rune pulled his textbook out, along with his science notebook, though he didn't particularly care about the lesson anymore. The teacher had put him in a nasty mood. NOBODY except his father called him Joshua. All the teachers were told this every year at the start of term. Even the substitutes were warned about it.
